I read a lot about people doing inexpensive lighting for little things with the clip lights that are like $7 I think from a hardware store adn I was wondering does anyone think I can get soemthing like this to give off a light that is close to the sun and it's light? I want to use this to basically back lit the subject to give it that burst of sunlight look behind them. And if I can do this with a clip light what kind of bulb? Thanks for any help. ]]> Lighting rhoraq http://digital-photography-school.com/forum/lighting/88436-clip-light-lighting.html http://digital-photography-school.com/forum/lighting/88407-helpful-resource-strobe-trigger-voltages.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 20:44:41 GMT Don't know if this has been posted before, so excuse the redundancy if it has.

This is a fairly comprehensive list of external fashes (strobes) and their measured trigger voltages. A lot of DSLRs and electronic 35mm cameras can't handle the high trigger voltages of some older model flashes (for ex. most EOS DSLRs have a hot shoe max trigger voltage tolerance of only 6V), so this list is good to consult before buying that used Vivitar 283 which could fry your camera. Some radio triggers, such as the YongNuo RF-602 require flashes with a max trigger voltage of 12V or less...

The lighting was horrible, all ceiling mounted tracklights pointed in every which way casting crazy shadows. With a little snooping around and a little improvisation, I was able to get some nice shots of the models.

I'm very tempted to make one, specifically this one. I know that they're not going to be super powerful but for macro work they may be great.

There are so many options out there and I'd like to make one of them but I was hoping someone could tell me if they'd done one and if they were or weren't impressed with it. ]]> Lighting frittsphoto http://digital-photography-school.com/forum/lighting/88399-diy-ring-flashes.html http://digital-photography-school.com/forum/lighting/88378-what-do-i-need-buy-indoor-studio.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:02:24 GMT What basics do I need to buy to shoot indoors?

I mostly shoot outdoors, natural lighting and want to bring it indoors now for the winter for the first time.

Do you have an good web resources that can help me learn indoor lighting techniques?
